Hodges Peak

Hodges Peak is an 11180. ft mountain summit in Sublette County, Wyoming, United States.

Description
Hodges Peak is located on the crest of the Gros Ventre Range which is a subrange of the Rocky Mountains. Hodges Peak ranks as the ninth-highest peak in the range and is 2.27 mi south-southeast of Doubletop Peak, the highest peak in the range. It is set 28 mi west of the Continental Divide within the Gros Ventre Wilderness, on land managed by Bridger-Teton National Forest. The nearest town is Jackson, 27 mi to the west-northwest. Precipitation runoff from the mountain's west slope drains to the Hoback River via Dell Creek, whereas the east slope drains to the Green River via Tosi Creek. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises approximately 2800 ft above Dell Creek in one mile (1.6 km). The mountain's toponym has been officially adopted by the United States Board on Geographic Names, and has been recorded in publications since at least 1914.

Climate
According to the Köppen climate classification system, Hodges Peak is located in an alpine subarctic climate zone with long, cold, snowy winters, and cool to warm summers. Due to its altitude, it receives precipitation all year, as snow in winter and as thunderstorms in summer.
